Chapter 1009 Chu Kuangren Arrives At Slumbering Sword Ocean, What Does All The Sword Cultivators In The World Have To Do With Me?
“Before that, let’s kill a few more Immortals,” Chu Kuangren mumbled.
He stared further away in the direction of Slumbering Sword Ocean as the words escaped his mouth with a flat tone.
It shocked Lil Fox beside him so badly that she trembled.
‘Holy sh*t! My boss is freaking awesome! He’s going to kill Immortals like a fly! And it seems like a child’s play to him!’
“Master, are you leaving soon?” Lan Yu asked all of a sudden as a thought popped up in her mind.
“Mhmm. I’m going alone this time. I’m afraid there might be some unforeseen circ.u.mstances,” he said.
Once a cultivator reached a certain level of cultivation, his mind would be able to form a kind of connection with nature that allowed him to have premonitions about certain things, especially when it involved himself.
That might be what others called a hunch.
Chu Kuangren had a feeling that since he started cultivating the Prime Clarity Spiritual Scripture, that hunch was heightened.
He had a strong feeling that his trip to Slumbering Sword Ocean would not just be a battle with the Saber Crown. If Lan Yu were to follow, she might be in danger.
Lan Yu nodded upon hearing his words. “In that case, I’ll wait for Master’s victorious return.” “Boss, go get him! I know you can!” Lil Fox also cheered on Chu Kuangren.
Chu Kuangren patted Lil Fox and said with a smile, “Great. Just wait for me here. I’ll be back soon.”
As soon as he said that, his figure flashed and disappeared into the void.
The other Masters in the academy felt it as well.
“He has made his move.” “This is a battle worth looking forward to.”
There was already a crowd outside Slumbering Sword Ocean. Everyone was waiting for the battle between Chu Kuangren and the Saber Crown to start.
“Has Chu Kuangren made his move yet?”
“I don’t know. I heard he’s still in the academy, and it has been seven days now. Is he going to chicken out?”
“No way. Is Chu Kuangren that disreputable? If he doesn’t show up, the swordsmans.h.i.+p world will be the biggest joke again.”
Most of the audience were swordsmen, and Chu Kuangren’s absence up until now only fueled their anxiety.
Deep inside Slumbering Sword Ocean, more precisely on a lake within the premise, the Saber Crown was sitting in the center with his legs crossed.
Gray mist rose from the lake and was absorbed by his body. At a closer look, there were numerous broken swords inside the lake. All the swords belonged to all the swordsmen that Slumbering Sword Ocean had defeated, all broken and thrown into the lake.
The lake of broken swords consisted of quite a number of high-tier Daoist weapons, including some Immortal Swords. Unfortunately, all the swords had lost their l.u.s.ter, and most of them were rusty.
The lake was actually a graveyard for swords. However, given its size, it was more like a sea, hence the orthodoxy’s name, Slumbering Sword Ocean.
To the saber cultivators of Slumbering Sword Ocean, the lake symbolized their orthodoxy growing stronger by the day. It was a place where they took pride in.
To the Saber Crown, it was a great place for cultivation.
The lake contained a large amount of rageful sword qi, and it was used to temper one’s Saber Dao, which was actually the essence of Avici Trinity Slash.
Buzz, buzz…
All of a sudden, the calm lake surface shook and rippled.
The swords at the bottom of the lake started to shake as if they had sensed something.
Confused, the Saber Crown stood up slowly. He channeled his saber intentions and suppressed the buzzing from the swords.
Then, he stared out of Slumbering Sword Ocean with the eyes of a hawk.
“He’s here.”
Outside the Slumbering Sword Ocean, the swordsmen remained anxious and restless. However, Chu Kuangren was still a no-show. The restlessness slowly turned into disappointment.
“Is Chu Kuangren scared?”
“If he’s scared, why issue a challenge in the first place?”
It was then that an elderly in the air sensed something. His eyes shone as he stared into the void. “He’s here!”
“What?!”
Everyone was surprised.
Yet, before they regained their composure, the swords in their hands or sheaths started to buzz and flew into the air, releasing sounds of swords chiming.
Sword qi within ten thousand kilometers gathered at a single point in the air and resonated with thousands of swords as if they were welcoming the supreme sword.
The sudden phenomenon left everyone in awe. Following that, a figure emerged from the void.
The figure’s robes were as white as snow, free of dirt. His handsome looks and elegant presence felt like the King of Immortals had just arrived.
Sword qi circulated around him and caused the swords to resonate with his arrival.
“Chu Kuangren is here!”
The crowd’s eyes were fixed on the man in white.
“What a terrifying aura. Why do I feel he’s even scarier than a few Immortals?”
“Is he not an Immortal? This is beyond terrifying.”
“This phenomenon… It’s the Sword Dao Immortal Physique!”
Someone thought of the sudden appearance of the Sword Dao Immortal Physique at the Cloud Nine Insignia Manor a while ago, and it sparked a heated discussion.
“I heard Chu Kuangren was also present back at Cloud Nine Insignia Manor, which means he must be the one who awoke the Sword Dao Immortal Physique!” “No wonder the Saber Crown said he’s the peak of Sword Dao. It’s because he has the Sword Dao Immortal Physique! Hope has been reignited in the swordsmans.h.i.+p world!”
One of the swordsmen stepped up and called out to Chu Kuangren.
“Chu Kuangren, you must make us swordsmen proud! Don’t lose to the Saber Crown again like that useless Sword Crown!”
“Yeah, if you lose, the swordsmans.h.i.+p world is finished!”
“You must win!” “You are fighting on behalf of all the swordsmen in the world!” Chu Kuangren simply flung his sleeves at the swordsmen. Terrifying source energy transformed into sword qi and blasted them away.
The one who called the Sword Crown useless died on the spot.
The scene caught everyone off guard and put a pale look on their faces.
“Chu Kuangren, what are you doing?!” asked one nervous swordsman.
Chu Kuangren stared at them coldly with his hands behind his back. “Who do you think you are, asking me to fight on your behalf?”
In the past few days, all the swordsmen in the world had insulted the Sword Crown, and the news naturally got to his ears.
Why would he want to fight on behalf of those b.a.s.t.a.r.ds?
What a joke. He despised them.
“I came for the Sword Crown and the Sword Crown only. All the swordsmen in the world have nothing to do with me. If you people want to fight, you can do it yourself. If you have to rely on others to fight your fight, you people are just a bunch of cowards,” Chu Kuangren said straightforwardly.
Embarra.s.sed by his swords, the swordsmen were rendered speechless.
Without wasting his time on those swordsmen, Chu Kuangren glanced over at the void before him. He could sense quite a number of presence hiding in the void, and every one of them was there with a hidden agenda.
“As expected. Other than the Saber Crown, there are quite a number of busybodies in the void. I hope you people can control yourself and behave,” Chu Kuangren muttered. Then, he headed into Slumbering Sword Ocean.
A powerful saber intent rose and shook the entire area. The moment it clashed with Chu Kuangren’s sword intent, a powerful shockwave that left everyone in fear spread outward.
Terrified, everyone quickly retreated. “That’s some powerful aura!”
“It’s only his aura, but it’s so far beyond us. If the two of them fight, I can’t imagine how big it will get.”
The Saber Crown looked at Chu Kuangren from the void and said coldly, “Our meeting last time ended in a hurry, and we did not get the chance to fight. Now, let me see how far you have reached in your Sword Dao.”
“The Sword Crown is my follower regardless. I will finish what he could not.”
Chu Kuangren put up a sword hand sign, and violet lotuses bloomed from the void. Thousand Lotus Sword Intent instantly enveloped their surroundings and shook even the universe.
